Answer:
How much do you make in interest in a year?
<u>$ 1100</u>
How much would you need to have made for your spending power to keep up with inflation in that year?
<u>$ 1782
</u>
How much buying power did you lose in that year because of inflation?
<u>$ 682
</u>
Explanation:
Your interest formula is given to you.
Interest in a year = principal (the amount invested) * rate (the interest rate) * period (the time you're measuring)
Interest = 55,000 * 2% * 1 year = 55,000 * 0.02 * 1 = $1,100
How much would you need to have made for your spending power to keep with inflation? Your interest rate would have needed to match the inflation rate, otherwise prices are going up faster than you're saving.
Required interest = 55,000 * 3.24% * 1 year = 55,000 * 0.0324 * 1 = $1,782
How much buying power did you lose? The difference between your required interest and your actual interest.
Buying power lost = 1,782 - 1,100 = $682. You lost this much in buying power.
Hope that helped :)
Answer:
$7,000
Explanation:
The insurance company will actually save some money, but I doubt that your company does. We can assume that the seminar will be paid by the insurance company and it costs $15,000. After watching that seminar, accidents should decrease by 25% of an equivalent to = $88,000 x 25% = $22,000
Since the insurance company will save $22,000 with the seminar and the cost of the seminar is $15,000, its net gain = $22,000 - $15,000 = $7,000

Explanation:
The accounting equation shows the relationship between the elements of a balance sheet which are assets liabilities and equity. This may be expressed mathematically as
Assets = Liabilities + Equity
While assets include fixed assets, cash, inventories, account receivables etc, liabilities include accounts payable, loans payable, accrued expenses etc.
Equity which represents the amount owed to the owners of the business includes retained earnings (which is the accumulation of the net income/loss over the years less dividends paid) and common shares.
When 9,000 shares of no-par stock issued for $17 per share increases to $21, this means that the additional amount
= ($21 - $17) × 9000
= $36,000
Amount to be collected from the issue
= $21 × 9000
= $189,000
This will result in an increase in cash and an increase in owners equity (the respective debits and credits).
